Microbiome Diversity: The Key to Unlocking Optimal Health and Immunity

In recent years, scientific research has shed light on the importance of the human microbiome in maintaining overall health and bolstering immunity. The microbiome refers to the trillions of microorganisms that reside in and on our bodies, working symbiotically with our cells to regulate numerous bodily functions. As functional medicine practitioners, understanding the critical role of microbiome diversity is essential for guiding our clients toward optimal health and immunity.

Definition of the Human Microbiome

The human microbiome refers to the collection of trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microbes, that live in and on our bodies. These microorganisms reside in various areas, such as the skin, mouth, gut, and reproductive organs, forming complex ecosystems that interact with each other and with our bodies.

What Weight Loss Journey Really Looks Like? The social media and advertising everywhere tells you how easy to lose 10 pounds or even 20lbs in a week, 2 weeks or a month, right? The diet culture also hypnotize us to think that anytime you need to lose a few pounds, simply cutting back on calories to maintain a calorie deficit, the extra body fat will melt away like butter on a hot plate. Nope... The reality is most people, especially women don't lose weight like that. Calorie deficit and starvation model assumes the human body is like a bucket pour in pour out. The human body is a very complicated biochemical machine driver by hormones, biology and psychological factors. Most people give up on their weight loss effort too early too soon because they have a distorted expectations. They think their weight will plummet at the start of the starvation diet like they see in social media and advertising. But the reality is that their weight may fluctuate a while before actual weight loss happen. However, most people would have given up before the weight loss start, which would be 1-2 months. Instead of focusing on the number on the scale, focus on your mood and energy level. Because these are what will carry you through the rest of the weight loss journey. Chasing an external factor will never bring your satisfaction and happiness. Weight loss is a healing process for the body, mind and soul that takes time and patience. It is a self-love and self-discovery journey as well. Take your time and enjoy the enjoy.

Did you know research from the University of Maryland found you’re 30 times more likely to laugh around other people than when you are by yourself!? _____ Research from Loma Linda University has found laughter to cause the opposite effects of stress on the body and increase levels of feel good neurotransmitters such as serotonin ____ Laughter has been linked to health benefits ranging from lower levels of inflammatory markers in the blood, to improved blood flow and arterial health and increased activity of killer cells, which promote immune system functioning ___ Laughter has been shown to causes a change in the way your brain’s neurons communicate with one each other; laughter can induce “gamma” frequencies, the type of brain waves found in those who meditate. Gamma waves have been linked to improvement of neuronal activity that deals with synchronization, recollection and memory _____ Laughter can even enhance your intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulate your heart, lungs and muscles, increases the endorphins released by your brain (such as oxytocin) and may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers aka endorphins ____ Laughter has been down to shuts down the release of stress hormones like cortisol, while also triggering the production of feel-good neurochemicals like dopamine, which have calming and anti-anxiety benefits ____ Endorphins are brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters that can be found in the pituitary gland and are distributed throughout the nervous system....they can interact with the opiate receptors in the brain to reduce our perception of pain and act similarly to drugs such as morphine ______ Secretion of endorphins can lead to feelings of euphoria, modulation of appetite, reduced feelings of pain, release of sex hormones, and enhancement of the immune response __ #briannapproved #endorphins #laughter #functionalhealth #holistichealth #dopamine #serotonin #HPAaxis #cortisol #recoveringsuperspaz 📷 : @kylediorio (at Ravello, Italy)

First of all, are you really hungry? Or are you having a bad day? Hunger can be trigger by either psychological stress or physiological needs. Psychologically, stress, anxiety, feeling lonely, depressed, and angry can be huge triggers for binge eating even though you're not hungry. And physiologically, hunger may be triggered by poor digestion, and/or a diet loaded with ultra-processed foods that are empty calories. You may seem like you're eating a lot of food, but no real nutrients actually get into the body, leaving your body hungry for more "nutrients". Learn to pay attention to your body's hunger signals and eat real food that fits your body.
